How to specify a JPA named parameter surrounded by wildcards?

Question

How would I specify a JPA query like:

Query q = 
  em.createQuery(
    \"SELECT x FROM org.SomeTable x WHERE x.someString LIKE \'%:someSymbol%\'\"
  );

For reference, you could also use CONCAT:

like CONCAT('%', :someSymbol, '%')
